1 College of Science, Engineering and Technology Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering and Technology 242 Trafton Science Center N Website: Chair: Vincent Winstead, P.E., Ph.D. Program Coordinator: Harry Jones, Ph.D. Gale Allen, Nannan He, Tom Hendrickson, Han-Way Huang, Harry Jones, Rajiv Kapadia, Muhammad Khaliq, Julio Mandojana, Vincent Winstead, Qun Zhang Accreditation. The Electrical Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, Electrical Engineering (EE) encompasses research, development, design and operation of electrical and electronic systems and their components. This program leads to a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE). The primary objective of the Electrical Engineering program is to educate engineering professionals who possess a sound design and analytical background coupled with a strong laboratory experience. This means that the department prepares its Electrical Engineering graduates for: 1. Entry into the engineering work environment with well developed design and laboratory skills. 2. Further study toward advanced degrees in engineering and other related disciplines. 3. Advancement into managerial ranks and/or entrepreneurial endeavors. The educational objectives for our Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering degree are to prepare our graduates to: 1. Function as responsible members of society with an awareness of the social, ethical, and economic ramifications of their work. 2. Become successful practitioners in engineering and other diverse careers. 3. Succeed in full time graduate and professional studies. 4. Pursue continuing and life-long learning opportunities. 5. Pursue professional registration. 6. Provide foundational education that allows for personal growth and flexibility through their career. Our metrics for determining success in meeting these objectives will include: 1. Assessment of societal, economic awareness, and ethical performance of our graduates by the graduate and employer. 2. Monitoring of the success of our graduates in the work force. 3. Monitoring of the success of our graduates in graduate and professional programs. 4. Assessment of continuing and life-long learning by the graduate (and their employer as applicable). 5. Reviewing the number and success of our students completing professional registration to advance their careers. The Electrical Engineering degree curriculum includes the following components: 1. A strong background in the physical sciences, mathematics, and the engineering sciences including extensive hands-on laboratory instruction. 2. An integrated design component including instruction in basic practices and procedures, creativity, control, economics, and synthesis. The process begins with basic instruction during the first year and concludes with a capstone design project. 3. A choice of several sub-disciplines in their senior level elective offerings (digital, controls, communications, microelectronics design and fabrication). 4. Opportunities for students to develop sensitivity to the social and humanistic implications of technology and motivate them to make worth while contributions to the profession and society, while upholding the highest standards of professional ethics. 5. Courses in business and economics to promote awareness of management and the economic aspects of engineering. 6. Preparation for continuing study and professional development. The curriculum offers students the opportunity to emphasize a number of specialized areas including digital systems, communications, controls, and microelectronic design and fabrication. During the senior year, students must take the first step toward registration as a professional engineer by taking the Fundamentals of Engineering, (FE) examination as described in the GPA Policy below. Minnesota State Mankato offers a 3/2 program with regional Liberal Arts colleges. Contact the department for more information. Recommended high school preparation is two years of algebra, one year of geometry, one-half year of trigonometry, one-half year of college algebra, and a year each of physics and chemistry. Without this background it may take longer than four years to earn the degree. The first two years students take science and mathematics courses common to all branches of engineering (pre-engineering), as well as supporting work in English, humanities and social sciences. Secondyear electrical engineering students complete physics, mathematics and 200-level engineering science courses. Some specialization for a particular engineering major occurs in the second year. Admission to Major. Admission to the college is necessary before enrolling in 300- and 400-level courses.
